"I, I went to the wrong room,"

The woman explained embarrassingly, "Did you misunderstand, I was just passing by. I was hospitalized on the third floor and got off the wrong elevator just now."

"The third floor is the male department floor."

Chu Xian glanced at her coldly, with almond-shaped eyes and curved eyebrows, with fairy eyelashes that are popular nowadays, and cat-like eyeliner, but the bright makeup can't hide the black and blue eyes under her eyes, her bones are young, and she is skinny. But he was already showing his old age, and his eyes were covered with a layer of cloudiness that would only happen if he stayed up all night.

"I misremembered, it was the fourth floor."

"What's your relationship with Shen Li?"

Chu Xian was too lazy to mess around with her. Although she deliberately put on heavy makeup, Chu Xian recognized the red mole at the corner of her eye at a glance, which was exactly the same as the girl who appeared in the hospital with Shen Li before.

Not only by Shen Li's side, Chu Xian always felt that he had seen someone in other places, and there was such a red mole at the end of his eye.

"I... I don't know him,"

The girl denied it, "Sir, why don't you let me go first? I just walked into the wrong ward and took a look inside. If you really think I'm a thief, you can call the police or check the monitoring. I really have nothing. Do."

"Do you know what disease Chu Lingze has?"

Chu Xian ignored her explanation, the girl paused, and asked with her mouth one step faster than her brain,

"What disease?"

"Medullary Hematoma,"

Chu Xian looked at her quietly, "The operation plus follow-up treatment and medicine will cost at least 80 yuan. Do you think Shen Li can afford it?"

"Wh, what... the blood tumor... is still in the medulla...? How is it possible..."

The girl opened her eyes wide and shook her head in confusion,

"Are you lying to me? Shen Li, Shen Li said that it was just a minor operation, that he just had a blocked vertebral artery."

"Minor surgery,"

Chu Xian sneered angrily, "It's a human life, who can afford it, you or Shen Li?"

"I……"

It was too late when she realized that she had slipped the tongue, the girl slowly squatted down against the wall, hugged her knees and smiled wryly,

"I can't help it. I owed money outside, and Shen Li paid it back for me. He still has my nude photos in his hand. If I don't listen to him, how can I live...? He promised me that as long as Get the child back, marry me, and live a good life with me."

"You don't know how to live your own life, and you still want to raise another child?"

"But Shen Li, he is rich, he said he can support me and the child, and I heard that this child is very smart and well-behaved, it should be, not difficult to raise..."

The girl spoke more and more quietly, and in the end even she herself felt ashamed of speaking.

"It's funny. Shen Li himself still owes me 20 yuan. Do you think you can have a good life by marrying him with your child? It wasn't enough for you to throw away Chu Lingze back then. Now you still want to kill him yourself."

"What?? I, I really didn't know that the child was so seriously ill. You...you are his adoptive father, right? You, you will pay for his medical expenses, perform operations on him, and you will save him right?"

The girl tightly grasped Chu Xian's trousers,

"I didn't want to kill him, and I've always regretted it... But I really didn't have the conditions to raise him, and I had to lose him back then... If you can save him, I, I don't want to..."

The crying begging was interrupted by the ear-piercing ringtone of the phone. The girl was afraid that Shen Li would find out that she had quietly come to the hospital to see the child. She tremblingly took out her phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number before she breathed a sigh of relief. Got on the phone.

Chu Xian glanced at her screen inadvertently, and the number for the call reminder looked familiar.

"Hello, is this Miss Su Xuan?"

"Yes, it's me,"

The girl stammered, "Who are you? What can I do for you?"

"I'm a paralegal at Tuhua Law Firm. I want to chat with you about your own son so that I can prepare for the trial. Do you have time now?"

Liu Cong pretended to be the name of the law firm that Shen Li was looking for, trying to trick Su Xuan out. Su Xuan had no doubts, thinking that he was also the lawyer Shen Li had hired to help with the lawsuit, and quickly covered the radio and watched helplessly. To Chu Xian, Chu Xian signaled her to open the release, only to hear that Liu Cong was still coaxing at the other end,

"Miss Su, don't worry, I just want to know more about the situation with you, because the lawyer Liu hired by the defendant is a leader in our industry, we have to make every possible preparation..."

"Liu Cong, it's me."

Chu Xian interrupted him lightly. Liu Cong, who was indulging in rendering himself omnipotent, was taken aback when he heard the sound, and coughed awkwardly.

"Chu, Mr. Chu...you, why are you with Miss Su?"

"You came just in time. There is a convenience store in front of the hospital. We will meet there in 10 minutes. Remember to bring Shen Li's bank statement with you, so that Miss Su can get a good understanding of his real financial situation."

"No problem no problem."

Liu Cong nodded in response, Chu Xian hung up the phone and returned the phone to Su Xuan,

"Have you thought about it clearly, do you want custody, or do you want your child to live?"

"As long as he is fine... I, I have suspected that Shen Li is lying to me, but I didn't expect him to take the child's life so seriously... You, you are a good person, you will save the child Bar?"

"How much did Shen Li pay you back?"

"Seven, seventy-eight thousand."

"I can help you with debts and nude photos, but you have to be our witness."

"I see,"

Su Xuan sucked her crying red nose, "Then can I take a look at the child? Just take a look..."

"No."

Chu Xian ignored Su Xuan's pitiful teary eyes and refused coldly, "I will arrange for you to meet when the lawsuit is successfully concluded. Take care of you."

"I understand, I understand... I will not betray you,"

Su Xuan nodded, "Then, what can I do for you?"

"follow me."

Chu Xian sent a WeChat message to Shen Yichi to say hello, and took Su Xuan away from the hospital for the time being. Ten minutes later, they showed up in the convenience store downstairs as scheduled, and Liu Cong had already rushed to occupy a table.

"President Chu!"

Liu Cong saw Chu Xian as soon as he glanced, and hurriedly put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Here, I bought you coffee and tea, er... the situation is special, why don't you drink some hot water, Mr. Chu? "

Liu Cong said that he was going to use the instant noodle box to fetch water for Chu Xian, but was stopped by Chu Xian.

"The business is important. Shen Li sees that she is watching closely, so hurry up."

"Okay, okay,"

Liu Cong nodded, handed Su Xuan a can of hot red bean porridge, and then got straight to the point,

"Miss Su, I think you should know better than us what Shen Li is. Giving Chu Lingze custody to you is tantamount to pushing Chu Lingze to die. If you still have a conscience, how do you choose now?" I don't need to say more, do I?"

"I... I know all these truths,"

Su Xuan bit her lips and said, Liu Cong showed her two things as soon as she came up, one proved that Shen Li was heavily in debt, and the other proved that Chu Lingze's condition was critical. After seeing these two things, she was completely disappointed in Shen Li ,

"Lawyer Liu, tell me, what should I do?"

"Before I devise countermeasures, I need to understand the real situation. Ms. Su, please explain in detail how you got pregnant, how you gave birth, why you abandoned Chu Lingze, and why you suddenly want to get back custody now. Only in this way can I help you and Chu Lingze."

"Six years ago... Shen Li and I were in a relationship. He, he didn't like to take safety measures. Anyway, he got pregnant once, and then he asked me to have an abortion,"

Su Xuan clutched the can of red bean soup tightly in both hands, recalled in a low voice, she was not very old, she looked like a college student without such heavy makeup,

"I dare not let my parents know, they will break my leg... But I don't have the money to fight it myself, so I can only count on Shen Li, who promised me at the beginning that he would be responsible for me. At that time, the two of us They are all students, I haven't arrived yet, and I haven't collected enough money for a long time. After a long time, the time for abortion has passed. The doctor said that this fetus can't be aborted. I, I dare not take risks, so I can only give birth .”

"Does Shen Li know that you have given birth to a child?"

Chu Xian asked so hard, Su Xuan could only curl her lips and shake her head. She didn't blame others for looking at her coldly, even she herself now felt that she was pitifully stupid.

"He didn't know...he insisted that I have an abortion, but he couldn't do an abortion for a six-month-old fetus, and he didn't want to spend money to induce labor for me. Even the doctor advised me not to force it, but he, he bought it himself. Abortion drugs forced me to drink and forced me to have an abortion. I was afraid, so I ran away... Then I quietly gave birth to a child. I didn't dare to let him know. He let go of his harsh words. I was afraid that he would strangle me and the child to death. We've gone our separate ways since then."

"He was going to strangle you at the time, but now he says he wants to raise you, do you dare to believe it?"

Liu Cong couldn't help but interjected, Su Xuan choked her throat, and whispered,

"He, he helped me pay back the money as soon as he came up. I thought he had repented, and I couldn't help it... I owe a loan shark..."

"Keep talking."

Chu Xian has no time to educate her for her parents. Su Xuan is actually a little afraid of him. This little brother is good-looking, but his eyes are too sharp, which makes Su Xuan feel like being lectured by the dean.

"I, I didn't want to throw him away, but, but the result of the physical examination at birth was not good. The doctor said that he may have a congenital disease, and he didn't even cry. I didn't even have the money for the examination, so I was even more afraid. What if something is really found out..."

At that time, Su Xuan herself was not yet an adult. After struggling for a long time, she could only choose to abandon Chu Lingze and run away. The nurses and doctors in the hospital were all good people. At that time, she thought that someone would take care of that little guy.

"I, I have already decided to pretend that I never gave birth to him in this life, but Shen Li suddenly found me last week. As you all know, I have something in his hands, and he said that I just need to appear in court. I just, I agreed to him. He didn’t tell me anything extra.”

"Okay, I almost get it,"

Liu Cong kept typing on the keyboard, "You are the same as usual, do whatever Shen Li asks you to do, and remember to answer my phone. By the way, you don't have any real feelings for him, do you? Having a relationship is enough for him."

"Emotionless."

Su Xuan nodded. She originally wanted to settle down, and she didn't care who she married. Her life has long been rotten. If she can save Chu Lingze now, it can be regarded as atonement.

"Okay, let me tidy up later, and I'll take you back later. Mr. Chu...do you want to go back to the hospital first?"

"Thank you for your hard work. Send the person safely, and don't let Shen Li find out."

Chu Xian was about to get up, but Su Xuan suddenly stopped him,

"Well, Mr. Chu...Mr. Chu, I heard Lawyer Liu kept calling you Mr. Chu. I don't know if it's convenient for you to tell me your name?"

"My name is Chu Xian."

Chu Xian said lightly, only to see that Su Xuan's eyes widened a little when he heard the sound, and he covered his mouth and let out a low cry,

"I, I really remember correctly... You are Chu Yi's brother. When I was young, Chu Yi invited me to play at home. I met you once..."

The more Su Xuan talked, the more excited she became, she suddenly knelt down in front of Chu Xian with a plop,

"I owe you too much... If I hadn't insisted on taking Chu Yi to play with the fitness machine, she wouldn't have died..."
